Question

a student usually saves $45 a month. He would like to reach a goal of saving $700 in 12 months. The student writes the equation 700= 12(x+45) to represent the situation. Solve the equation for x.

Answer 1

X = 13.33

13.33+45=58.33

58.33 x 12 = 699.96

Answer 2

Answer:

in this case, x is the amount more he needs to save per month

350=12(x+20)

distribute

350=12x+240

minus 240 both sides

110=12x

divide both sides by 12

9.166666=x

needs to save about $9.17 more per  month or 29.17 permonth
